The Blackhawks are 6-9-3 through 18 games this season. They most recently lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins 5-3 at the United Center on Marian Hossa's jersey retirement night. Khaira, Kane, and Kurashev were the Blackhawks 3 goal scorers on a night that they outshot the Penguins.
The Dallas Stars are 11-5-3 through 19 games and find themselves in first place in the Central Division. The Stars most recently fell to Colorado in a shootout Monday night with a score of 3-2.
Some players to watch for the Hawks Max Domi and Patrick Kane. Domi has 4 assists in his last 5 game sand Patrick Kane has 4 points in his last 5 games. Kane snapped a 10 game goal drought, so it will be interesting to see if his last goal lifted some weight off of his shoulders.
Some players to watch for the Stars are Jason Robertson and Joe Pavelski. Robertson has 5 goals and 8 points in his last 5 games. Pavelski has 5 assists in his last 5 games and has been generating some great scoring chances.
The Blackhawks struggling defense may be getting some reinforcements, as Seth Jones is rumored to be returning to action after missing some time with a thumb injury.
